If you live where a Flint lock is required get the best you can and have an experenced person help you untill you understand it well. They are a much bigger problem to get and keep working right than a cap lock or and inline.
If you can go with an inline check out the Triumph that is simple and easy to load and clean and comes out of the box with good hunting accuracy with a number of loadswill shoot in it. The Triumph is designed for a scope.
If you must use iron sights the check out the Omega that will be coming on the market this year.
Some people have trouble understanding that in most circumstances you get what you pay for and what is made cheaper will show it at some point. Lee

I've got a CVA wolf and a traditions buck stalker.. Just bought the traditions so I haven't hunted it yet. but it seems like a really good little rifle. Definately check to though to see what your state's regulations are. Remember that with the right load any of these "cheap" rifles will make a deer just as dead as any other rifle will.

IMO, save your money and buy a TC. I went the "cheap" route with the Traditions Pursuit XLT and regret it. My father has an Encore, and we both agree that it could be the best shooting gun we've ever shot. It's every bit as accurate as the 30.06 at 100 yds, making some nice clover leaves. I realize the Encore is in a completely different price bracket, but any TC will out shoot the "cheaper" guns, again just my opinion. Good luck!

I like my CVA Wold for accuracy and size, but hate the crud ring I get no matter what combo I try with T7. The one thing that doesn't make sense to me though is why they make the ramrod too short. I use the three inch swiveled extender which is a pain to have to screw on for a follow up shot. Thankfully, I haven't needed a quick follow up. Great brush gun!
